Message: [QUOTE="DavidinNaples, post: 2805942, member: 3537"] [ATTACH=full]33584[/ATTACH] [B]The USA U-18 team dominated in Mexico, went 6-0 and brought home the Gold Medal. [/B]The two UConn players, Christyn Williams and Olivia Nelson-Ododa, had great moments and some not so good plays. Overall, they both showed raw talent and skill, but need Geno & CD's coaching. 1. [B]The Good [/B]- Olivia shot 22-43 from inside the arc, 51%. ;) Christyn had 13 assists and only 5 turnovers. That is an assist to turnover ratio of 2.6, which is great. CW can rebound..! 27 total including 10 on the offensive boards. ONO also had 27 rebounds. ONO had 6 blocked shots and 4 steals. Williams only had 3 fouls in 85 minutes. Lowest on the team. [B]2. The Bad - [/B] Christyn went 2-8 from 3 pt range. 25%. Olivia shot 11-19 from the free throw line. 57%. Williams missed a game and a half with an illness. (Don't drink the water in Mexico..!!) :rolleyes: ONO had 7 assists, but 9 turnovers. [B]3. The Ugly - [/B] Christyn missed 50% of her 16 free throws. Olivia had 15 personal fouls in 99 minutes. :eek: Compared to the recent U-17 games, play was ragged and a bit disorganized. With the exception of Canada, the competition was really bad. [B]Great experience for both players. :) [/B]Not a whole lot of practice time together and playing in a foreign country will make any all star team look bad. Both came home injury free..!! Go Huskies..!! [/QUOTE]
